On Wednesday 7 December, risk analysis and mapping company Maplecroft launched the Human Rights Risk Atlas 2012.

The Human Rights Risk Atlas provides:
- Interactive global maps, trend analysis, and sub-national data providing insight into risk at a local i.e. site-specific level, and sector overlays
- 31 different human rights risk indices and maps clustered into four categories: human security, labour rights and protection, civil and political rights, and access to remedy
- An evaluation of human rights violations with methodological reference to the UN “Protect, Respect and Remedy” framework for business and human rights
